I don't know about you but a fresh out of the oven warm and gooey cookie brings back memories!
Like a plate of warm cookies waiting for me after the first day of school or a fun Sunday afternoon baking with my mom. Those are the fond memories sparked whenever I bake up a batch of these Wholesome Chocolate Chip Cookies!
I love how easy these are to make, with a few simple and hearty ingredients, in minutes you can enjoy a nutritious and delicious cookie!

3. Fold in 1/2 C flour at a time to blend.
4. Next add 1 C oatmeal and stir well.
5. Lastly add 1 & 1/2 C chocolate chips, stir until dough is well combined (dough will be thick).

7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
